Dr. Pramod has 4 decade of rich experience in open pit and underground mining of Vedanta. His technical work has been acknowledged and appreciated worldwide in the field of Blasting & Geo-tech. He loves to study and deliver Geo-technically challenging project.
He headed Geo tech vertical in large open cast and underground for Vedanta. And also, worked as Advisor (2014 to March 2018). He is recipient of National Geoscience Award 2009 for his contribution in mine design based on Rock Mechanics and pillar mining.
Contribution at Vedanta Mines:
Dr. Rajmeny can decide method work for underground metal mining, design open pit and underground mines - using numerical modelling, optimize blasting and can solve ground vibrations problems by control blasting including pre-splitting. He can assess stability of a mine, including prediction of failures and suggest remedial measures. His contribution to Vedanta mines are as follows:
(a) Rampura Agucha open pit Mine (RAM) :
1) Successful slope management of RAM.
2) Predicted and dealt 3 major slope failures using Radars, Implemented Slope Management Plan (SMP) and Trigger Action Response Plan (TARP).
3) Designed main shaft and main portal of RAM UG with respect to RAM open pit by numerical modelling on FLAC-3D software. Development of stoping method in difficult ground conditions.
(a) Zawar Mines :
1) Designed 8 pillar blasts, including pillar blast consuming 145tonne of explosive in one shot yielded 0.55million tonne of ore.
2) Designed stoping and pillars for successful and safe mining.
3) Analysed damage of Mochia Main shaft- Bunton bending and concrete line shearing & rehabilitated it.
Tours and Travel
Mr. Rajmeny visited Grasberg Cu-Au open pit mine in Indonesia, George Fisher UG mine, Ernest Henry Open pit & Underground mines, Black Star open pit and underground interaction mines and Copper Starter Pit of Mount Isa, Kalgoorlie Super pit, Prominent Hill (ug& pit), Boddington pits, Australia. Los Colorado and Endocollo open pit mines of Chile and Skorpian mine & Gamsberg, Blackstone mines of Namibia and South Africa.
Education & Publications
Dr Rajmeny Mining engineering (MBM) has first class mine manager certificate of competency. He did M. Tech & PhD from ISM, Dhanbad and published 3-4 technical paper published at national & international level in geo-tech and blasting area. He wrote a book on Blast Designing.
